I'm big on Okafor but have a few concerns about him. He's most effective rushing the passer from the same side Wake lines up at...not nearly as effective on the opposite side. His awareness, or ability to find the football quickly is lacking. I see him run upfield in an effort to get to the passer while a running back runs right by him and he's still rushing the passer before he realized the RB is 5 yards upfield.

truth that's called he doesn't care about run responsibilities and playing contain...he's all about getting upfield and he leaves huge holes for backs to cut into cause of it...it's been a problem for texas run d all year long...

as for dion jordan can cover slot wrs come on guys...if you draft that guy and you're miami it isn't to cover slot wrs down the field it's to drop occasionally and cover the flats and to first and foremost get after the damn qb...a lot of that other stuff is worthless...and that kid needs to play standing up as much as possible...if you play him as an every down end that's a liability against the run i can tell ya that...so if i'm miami and i'm taking dion jordan he's rushing standing up off the edge against tackles and he's gonna have to develop some pass rush moves

hoops scoops 2012 season ..."in 2014 ryan tannehill etches his name in stone amongst the games elite qbs"..."ryan tannehill and andrew luck will carry the afc for the next decade plus the way peyton manning and tom brady have this last decade plus" for the love of god get a real freaking mike already!!!

yep...cause if all he's got is speed off the edge and he doesn't get much stronger he's gonna have a hard time running around nfl tackles...if they get their hands on him and lock out he's gonna be toast...

love the get off tools but the rush arsenal is lacking and the lack of strength is a concern off the edge

Why not do both? After all, if you can't pressure good ol' TOMMY, you won't beat N.E..

The GIANTS have shown everyone how it's done. And it wasn't by winning a "shootout", either. TOMMY doesn't throw very accurately when (a) throwing off his back foot; (b) throwing while running for his life; or (c) throwing while on his back. Simple enough formula. WAKE, however, is MIAMI's only pass-rushing threat presently: the ODRICK experiment is a failure i/m/o. But drop ODRICK i/s to DT and find another JT type, and TOMMY won't like seeing MIAMI come to town, and he also would look for another, safer vacation destination.

Weren't all of the so-called "experts" saying the EXACT same thing about J TAYLOR not so long ago?

That was 1997 so I don't remember but judging the way Jason Taylor used to bull rush OT after a few speed rush and swim moves during his rookie season he was leaps and bounds stronger than Jordan and had a lot more pass rush moves than Jordan does now.
